Chapter 61: The Prefect's Prison

After weighing it again and again, the prefect of Suzhou finally threw the problem of how to deal with Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang to the immortal from Longdong Mountain.

After some calculations, the middle-aged Dao Master from Longdong Mountain finally came up with a poisonous plan. So, he said unhurriedly to the prefect of Suzhou, who was sitting in the middle of the hall: "Since these two little Taoist priests keep saying that they can get rid of the monsters in the lake, it is better to wait until tomorrow, and send a few of your men to send the two of them to the middle of Zhenze Lake by boat, and then tie big stones to the two of them and throw them into the lake, so as to help the two of them catch the monster in the lake." ”

"This ......" Listening to the proposal of the immortal of Longdong Mountain, the prefect of Suzhou couldn't help but glance at Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang, thinking to himself, if this person was tied to a big stone and thrown into the lake, then what would be the way to live, and the two little Taoist priests in front of him would definitely not agree. But he didn't forget to push the boat down the river, and asked Yu Fei'er and the two of them for advice: "Since you two little Taoist priests believe that there are monsters in Zhenze Lake, and you insist on going into the water to catch the monster you said, the two little Taoist priests should not have any objections to the suggestions made by this immortal, right?"

Wen Yiyang knew that the middle-aged Taoist chief intended to murder him, and after listening to the Suzhou prefect's inquiry, Wen Yiyang immediately asked the Suzhou prefect: "This Zhenze Lake is vast at a glance, how easy is it to find that monster in such a big lake? ”

The prefect nodded again and again after listening to Wen Yiyang's words, and felt that what Wen Yiyang said was very reasonable, so he looked at the middle-aged Taoist from Longdong Mountain and asked, "What this little Taoist priest said is very reasonable, I don't know what you think of the immortals?"

The middle-aged Daoist from Longdong Mountain already had his own plans in his heart, and he thought, "After these two little Daoists are tied to stones and thrown into the lake, even if the two of them are not drowned, they will be cleaned up by that powerful guy under the water." No matter how high the skills of these two little Taoist priests are, after they get to the water, the two of them will definitely not be the opponents of that guy. As soon as he thought of this, the middle-aged Taoist priest immediately replied to the prefect: "My lord, if these two little Taoist priests can return from the lake to the shore after they have stones tied to them, it means that the two of them really have some ability, and the adults can naturally believe what they say, and they can also be released." As for the poor road, I will never ask adults to hold this worship to the river god again. My lord, what do you think of this suggestion?"

After listening to the middle-aged Taoist chief's suggestion, Wen Yiyang didn't wait for the Suzhou prefect to answer, and preemptively said, "Okay! If the two of us can return to the shore, not only will you cancel the annual river god worship in Suzhou City, but you will also have to disband all your disciples who have cultivated in Longdong Mountain. ”

"Little Taoist, you don't have to get an inch. You'd better keep these requests for Lord Yama to hear. After listening to Wen Yiyang's answer, the middle-aged Taoist from Longdong Mountain was so angry that he jumped like thunder.

"Silence!" the prefect of Suzhou immediately stopped the quarrel between the two, and then he discussed it with the master on the side. After some discussion, the prefect of Suzhou finally made up his mind. After he sat down in his seat, the Suzhou prefect said to Yu Fei'er and the two of them, "Since the two little Taoist priests have no objection to the suggestion made by this immortal, then it is decided. As long as the two of you can successfully return from the lake to the shore, the official will believe everything you say, and will never hold this worship to the river god again. By the way, I have to grieve the two little Taoist priests to stay in my prefect's prison for one night tonight, but you can rest assured that the official will definitely order his subordinates to entertain them with good wine and food. After speaking, the prefect of Suzhou signaled the servants on both sides of the lobby to escort Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang to the prefect's prison.

The two of them soon came to the door of a cell in the prefect's prison, and one of the officers explained while opening the door: "In the past five years, our Suzhou City has been in good weather, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there are very few traitors, so there is not a single prisoner in the entire prefect's prison all the year round, and most of the cells are also uncleaned all year round, and they are very dirty. Fortunately, a Taoist priest was imprisoned in this cell not long ago, and now that it is fairly clean, the two little Taoist leaders are reluctant to make it difficult for them, so let's squeeze here for one night. With that, the officers led them into the cell, locked the door and withdrew.

After Yu Fei'er and the two of them entered the cell, they soon saw a young Taoist squatting in the dark corner deep in the cell. The young Taoist priest looked to be in his early twenties, wearing a Taoist robe. What made Yu Fei'er and the two of them curious was that the Dao robe that this young Taoist priest was wearing was exactly the same as the Dao robe worn by those Longdong Mountain Taoist priests.

Just as Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang kept looking at the young Taoist priest in the corner, the young Taoist priest was also staring at Yu Fei'er and the two of them with wide eyes, and the expression on his face was extremely nervous. When Yu Fei'er and the two of them moved to get closer to the young Taoist, the young Taoist suddenly squeezed out a sentence from his mouth: "Did my master send the two of you to the prison to take my life?"

The words of the young Taoist priest squatting in the corner immediately stopped Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang. At the same time, it also made the two of them have such a guess in their hearts, what must have happened to this Taoist priest of Longdong Mountain before? What kind of thing could it be that made him worry that his master would come to take his life? After having such a guess in his heart, Yu Fei'er asked the young Taoist priest in the corner: "Xiaodao is from Putuo Mountain, and this little Taoist friend is from Longhu Mountain, the two of us don't know the master in your mouth, how could we come to this prefect's prison to take your life?" Brother Dao, can you tell us two what you did before?"

After listening to Yu Fei'er's answer, the young Taoist priest who was squatting in the corner immediately looked at Yu Fei'er and the two of them carefully. Sure enough, the outfits on the two people in front of him were different from the outfits in his own teaching, which made his hanging heart finally let go. After that, he crouched alone in the corner and did not answer the questions raised by Yu Fei'er.

Wen Yiyang thought that the young Taoist priest squatting in the corner did not hear Yu Fei'er's question clearly, so he repeated the question that Yu Fei'er had just asked: "This Taoist brother, what did you do to be locked up in this prefect's prison? You just said that your master wants to get rid of you, what is going on?"

After repeating Yu Fei'er's previous question, Wen Yiyang found that the young Taoist priest who was squatting in the corner was still burying his head and not saying a word, nor answering his own words, completely leaving himself and Yu Fei'er aside.

It was boring, Wen Yiyang had to turn his head and smile bitterly at Yu Fei'er, and said, "It seems that the two of us are not popular with this Taoist priest of Longdong Mountain." After Yu Fei'er smiled bitterly at herself, Wen Yiyang changed the topic and began to discuss the spell that Yu Fei'er cast when he sacrificed to the river god: "That's right! Brother Dao." The water-resisting technique you performed to save the pair of boys and girls on the shore of Zhenze Lake today is really amazing, and you actually cut a crack that goes straight to the bottom of the water on the surface of the lake, and I am not as good as I can see it!"

Yu Fei'er replied with a smile: "I remember that Master once said when I was going down the mountain, 'It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read ten thousand books.'" I didn't have much understanding of Master's words before, but after passing through Xianxialing and his party, I have a new understanding of Master's words. As my path has improved to a certain extent, I have learned more about the mysteries of the five elements, and now I have the ability to resist water. Speaking of improvement, I believe that Brother Yiyang must have realized a lot of new things after going through this experience in Xianxia Mountain, right?"

When it came to spells, Wen Yiyang also came to the end, and hurriedly nodded and said, "After listening to Brother Dao's detailed explanation of the whirlpool in the Xianxia Mountains, I actually took this opportunity to comprehend some of the key points of casting water spells. I really want to thank you, Brother Dao!"

"Can a Zhengyi Sect disciple also cast a water spell? Yu Fei'er still thinks that the Zhengyi Sect's disciple's talisman spell is only related to fire. ”

"The fire spell in the Zhengyi Sect's talisman spell is actually the same as the numerology element in the Daoist brother's five elements spell, which is the foundation of all the spells cast by the disciples of the Zhengyi Sect. Different from Brother Dao's Five Elements Spell, in Brother Dao's Five Elements Scholarship, this water and fire are incompatible with each other, and it is impossible to cast spells related to these two elements at the same time, but our Zhengyi Sect disciples can cast fire spells at the same time, and they can also cast water spells, because our Zhengyi Sect's spells rely on talismans to cast, and through different spells, Zhengyi disciples can cast different spells at the same time. Now that both of us have comprehended water-related spells, it seems that the Demon Dao's wishful thinking is about to fail if he wants to tie a stone to us and throw him into Zhenze Lake to drown us. ”

"Hmm. I hope that youkai in the lake will appear tomorrow so that we can meet him properly. This prefect's prison is quite clean, and we can rest here for a good night. If you have enough spirits, you can continue to fight with that demon tomorrow. After speaking, Yu Fei'er sat down, closed her eyes, and sat up. Seeing this, Wen Yiyang immediately sat down and sat down calmly.

Before I knew it, more than an hour had passed. Suddenly, the door to the cell opened, and several servants entered with two food boxes. After they had neatly placed the food and drinks in the food box on the ground, one of the servants said to Yu Fei'er and the two of them, who were meditating, "Two little masters, the meal is ready for you, you two use it slowly, and when you finish the meal, we will clean it up." With that, the officers turned around and prepared to leave the cell.

The young Taoist priest who was squatting in the corner saw that there were so many delicious foods on the ground, and immediately rushed over, reaching out to grab the food in the bowl. One of the errand officers who walked at the back hurriedly stepped forward and kicked him away, and said viciously: "You stinky Taoist, this is not for you, get out of the way." ”

Yu Fei'er hurriedly opened his mouth to stop: "Stop, you just let him eat, you don't have to worry about the things here." ”

The kicking officer hurriedly bowed his head and answered Yu Fei'er's words, and at the same time did not forget to glare at the young Taoist priest viciously, and then turned around and walked out of the prison with several other messengers.

After the servants who had brought food to Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang locked the cell door and walked away, the young Taoist priest immediately got up from the ground, quickly snatched a few things from the bowls on the ground, and then hid in the corner and ate alone. Seeing this, Wen Yiyang had to shake his head and said with a smile: "This Taoist priest, if you can grab food, your hands and feet are fast enough." Wen Yiyang said as he picked up a wine jug from the ground and asked Yu Fei'er, "Yu Fei'er, do you want to have some of this wine too?"

Yu Fei'er hurriedly shook her hand and replied, "To be honest, I've never touched wine when I've grown so big." This is also related to the Five Elements I have learned. The Five Elements Technique focuses on the use of Qi and Spirit, and drinking alcohol will destroy the smoothness of the Qi in the cultivator's body for a period of time, which is not conducive to the cultivation of the Five Elements Technique. Although my master never forbade me to drink alcohol, I still insisted that it was better not to drink. Wen Yiyang, leave this wine to you alone to enjoy slowly. ”

"Then you're welcome. Wen Yiyang poured himself a full glass, drank it all, and then said: "Sure enough, it's good wine! All of our Zhengyi Sect disciples practice fire spells, and this wine can help fire, so our disciples in Zhengyi Sect are very fond of drinking. However, drinking too much of this wine is easy to make mistakes, and it can also make people very impulsive. ”

Yu Fei'er hurriedly teased him and said, "It seems that Wen Yiyang, your quick temper is all caused by drinking." ”

The two of them talked and laughed, and after a while, they ate all the food in the bowl. Soon, the servants who delivered food and wine returned to their cells, and after cleaning up the empty bowls on the ground, they locked the door and left the prefect's cell. Yu Fei'er and the two of them continued to sit up and meditate in the cell.

The night passed quickly.

Early the next morning, after Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang had breakfast, they were taken to the prefect's lobby. At this time, the prefect and the middle-aged Taoist from Longdong Mountain were already waiting for the two of them in the lobby. After Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang were escorted to the lobby, the Suzhou prefect ordered yesterday's leading official to escort Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang to Zhenze Lake, and according to the request of the middle-aged Taoist from Longdong Mountain, they tied stones to the two and threw them into Zhenze Lake.

The leading official answered, and then took a few of his subordinates to escort Yu Fei'er and the two of them out of the prefect's yamen and headed towards Zhenze Lake outside the city. The middle-aged Taoist master from Longdong Mountain secretly sent a few of his disciples to follow Yu Fei'er and the two of them, while he and the Suzhou prefect waited for the results in the yamen.

The people in Suzhou City have already received the news that the two little Taoist priests who destroyed the worship activities of the river god yesterday will go to Zhenze Lake to remove the demons today. Therefore, many people gathered outside the prefect's yamen early this morning. After the leading officials in the prefect's yamen escorted Yu Fei'er and the two of them out of the yamen, the ordinary people who were surrounding the yamen immediately followed Yu Fei'er and them, all the way towards Zhenze Lake.

When the officials in the Suzhou prefect escorted Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang to the edge of Zhenze Lake, the shore of the lake was already crowded with people, and the people who came to watch were actually more than the people who came to watch and worship the river god yesterday. There were two groups of people in these onlookers, one group of people came to see these two little Taoist priests catch demons, and the other group of people came to see off these two little Taoist priests on their deathbed, so the expressions on the faces of these two groups of people were very different.

When the two of them came to the shore of the lake, a fishing boat had already been parked on the shore of the lake, and there were many ropes and stones in the fishing boat. Seeing the ropes and stones in the fishing boat, Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang certainly knew what these ropes and stones would be used for, but the ordinary people watching on the shore didn't know. When they saw that the two little Taoist priests were escorted onto the boat, and the officials in the yamen of the Suzhou prefect began to tie stones to the two little Taoist priests, they finally understood what was going on. There was a discussion on the shore of the lake: "After being thrown into the middle of Zhenze Lake, it is not easy for ordinary people to swim back alive, if they are tied to stones, they will definitely die." After some discussion, the mood of those who originally came to see the demon hunt suddenly became the same as those who came to see off the two little Taoist priests on their deathbed. "It seems that these two little Taoist priests have no hope of life. "This lamentation was constantly heard from the crowd.

Although Yu Fei'er and Wen Yiyang's spells are very good, now, after all, the two of them were tied to their bodies and thrown into the lake after being tied to stones, which makes people feel scary to think about. So, after the two of them were thrown into the lake, are they really sure to escape from these ropes tied to the stones? Will the monster in the lake appear?
